My Story

I am taking part in Blackmores Sydney Running Festival 2017 to raise much needed funds for Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF). Their work is really important, and I want to do what I can to help. But there is only so much I can do on my own.
You can help too, by donating to my page. Any amount you can give makes a difference!
You can also support me by encouraging others to get involved, too. Please email the link to my page to your friends and family, or share it on social media.
Thank you for your generosity and support -- it means a lot to me. Together we can help Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF) create the world we want to see.

Hi all,
The members of this team are Chris Stephen, Digby Nield and Tom Fitzsimons.
We have recently decided to compete in the upcoming Sydney Marathon, and we are aiming to raise much needed funds for Australian Cancer Research Foundation at the same time.
Cancer is an awful disease that hits close to home for many people. We want to do what we can to support them in the hope of treating and curing incidences of cancer.
We would love your help and support. Please donate and share this page. Any amount you can give makes a difference.
Thank you for your generosity and support!

Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF) believe that a world without cancer is possible. It is a bold statement but one that we are committed to.

We can’t do this without you. Every day our supporters help to accelerate what can be achieved by giving Australia’s best scientists the technology they need to end all cancers through better detection, prevention and treatment.

We are passionate about innovation and impact and believe accelerating cancer research is vital. Thanks to our generous and committed supporters we award grants between $1-10M each year for major equipment and technology. We are the only charity in Australia that does this, many fund the person (the researcher) but no-one else provides the cutting-edge equipment they need.
